simple question!

How do i make the chatbox on the server bigger and keep it up constantly? instead of having it fade?
 
You can resize the chatbox using some lua. In TS1, it's not possible to do this kind of stuff without re-writing/overloading most of the chatbox function itself - see TSC' code. In TS2, it's actually a bit easier to achieve but still requires some overloading if I remember correctly.


There's no easy, built-in way. I thought about porting ZS' chatbox to TSC (with it, you'd have all those things as convar options), but it was never really worth the effort.
 
Zaub, would it be possible for you to code in a way of doing these things into TSC?
 
Porting ZS' chatbox over is possible (but would require to port a lot of dependencies too from ZS - so you would have half a RP gamemode in your RP gamemode addon) and modifying TSC to allow these things would be possible too.

It's not a difficult task. Not at all. The problem is simply that you have to work around even more stuff. You'd have to copypaste TS' code and modify it in the way you want it to. It's a lot of work for little to no gain. But it is possible, without any bigger problem. Except the effort, of course.
